Original song - Why don't you ask

[iUsedToBeBig]

The Lyrics are wonderful and the singing is great but not in a rude manner but i want you to be better so i will tell you the music is not perfect please dont take this as a hate comments because you are good but the music is not good.

[emnasiah]

By reading this , this is a lost of time so

stop reading , sorry to waste your time.

(nice song)

[EdMichigan]

If I'm going to attempt a cover, this would be the one. I like the guitar. Am D EM. Possibly a simpler version, but I'll work on it.

[jeffstunes]

Thanks Ed. I am eager to find out what it would sound like :)

There has already been one cover of another song of mine, and use of my music in other videos. If you do, the please let me know and I can add it to my playlist :)

[jubeeze]

great song.. i can totally relate.. loved it!!

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Jubeeze :)

[forever57]

You don't know what I'm thinking.

You don't know how I feel.

Well you could learn about me if you tried.

So why don't you ask

I'm impressed by your words

But in an experience I'm living, happens exatly the opposite,I ask, but the answers don't come.Because like you sing in your "Twist of faith" He dig a hole so deep

that he could never climb out.I'm really sorry for that. he is a dear friend of mine.

the opposite I ask

[jeffstunes]

In this song. One person makes an effort to know how the other person feels, but this is not reciprocated. So they are really saying. Why don't you want to know me as deeply as I want to know you?

Why don't you ask me how I feel about things, instead of just assuming :)

Though interpretation is a wonderful thing :)

[vintagedoll]

yeah, I do miss them quite a bit. I listened to them a lot in high school. Thanks for sharing your music. :)

[vintagedoll]

I don't know why, but I hear a hint of "James" in your sound. It's a compliment.. I love "James". :) How cute is your mom for posting that little message? :D

[jeffstunes]

Thank you very much. I remember "James". "Sit down" is the first song that comes to mind :)

My mother is very supportive, and also my best critic. She is never afraid to tell me if she doesn't like something :)

[LJABC]

Just popped in to tell you that I'm listening!

Mum x

[Riverman1971]

i love the vibraphone. Not enough people experiment with new sounds anymore, this is great. Is that New York? certainly looks familiar. a definite 5 stars

[jeffstunes]

Thanks again Rob. Yes that is New York. I am in the UK, but I went there a few years ago with my daughter :)

[Riverman1971]

its a great city. i went there pre-9/11 and had the fortune to stand on top of the twin towers. Got some great photos which may be worth something in a few years!!

[LJABC]

In answer to the question and in relation to.....

1:41-1:48

Jeff aged 1 year and 11 Months, in the arms of Margaret Mc Guire, at St. Ediths, Convent, Hillside Crescent, Leigh-on Sea Essex. Early June 1967

"My beautiful Son!"

[Hisautumnrain]

Ok, you are on! I am asking this 1:46 and 2:46. Who are they if you would allow me to know. If not post here then PM me. I think I know I just ponder now if I am right. I was and am I supose for LIFE a Girl Scout as well. I did not have that blessing as a child growing up. But I gave that gift to my own daughter. I became a Scout Leader... Dasies, Brownies and then Girl Scouts. Lovely to see the tradition carry on... His autumnrain, becca @-->----

[jeffstunes]

at 1:46 I can't remember the name of the lady, but the child is me :)

At 2:46 there is me and my father and uncles, at my grandmothers 90th birthday.

Were you right? :)

[LJABC]

Just popped in to say, "Ilove you!"

[jeffstunes]

Thanks mum. Love you too :)

[1butterflykiss]

Adorable!!!!!

Thanks sweetie for sharing this.

*kisses*

Therese

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Therese :)

[mordentimes54]

LOVED IT, thanks

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. It's one of the more lively ones I've done :)

[LJABC]

I rember that day in St. Ediths as if it were yesterday and the look that said "Oh, I don't want to be doing this Mum. Please hurry up!"

[Hisautumnrain]

::smiles:: Well that would have been wonderful to see. How they grow up nicely don't they mum? Thinking Jeff to be disagreeable about anything was beyond my imagination. Now I have proof he is mortal and not the Angel I make him out to be in my heart, soul and mind. But I will keep that notion. I like to think even Angel's often times have other things they MUST attend to like Singing! ::winks and skips off:: His autumnrain, becca @-->------

[vmandanici]

Very Beatlesque! Nice tune Jeff!

Cooool schtuff - thanks, very "hooky"

[jeffstunes]

Never really thought about that. This was an experiment in old and new styles blended :)

[hillbillygill99]

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. I just finished watching your opera vid. Lol.

[Nightwatcher1982]

Great song, Jeff! Quite different from what you've posted so far. And that vibraphone works rather well with the rock-music, actually :). Keep 'em coming!

[jeffstunes]

This is the sort of stuff I'd like to do live. Somthing with some bite in it. Thank you for the compliment :)

[SerenityFair]

HAHAH This is great!

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. I like a good thumping tune every now and again :)

[LJABC]

No WD40 needed for your creativity. Well done! a cheerful tune to wend my weary way to bed. Love you loads!

[jeffstunes]

Thanks Mum. I used some different software for the video this time. :)

[mysturm]

5 stars ...

:-)

[jeffstunes]

[Porsche924boy]

Great job Jeff. I have to favorite it. It's a good true song. Keep it up.

[jeffstunes]

Thank you, and thanks for favouriting it :) I think the words in this song work for a lot of people. Oh how misunderstood we are. Lol.

[littlecherubs]

Awesome video and great song!!

5 stars....

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Littlecherubs :) Glad you liked it.

[lazymornings]

i just noticed you'd posted others,i'll try them too.good voice

[jeffstunes]

I saw this after I replied to your last comment. So you probably already know now :)

[lazymornings]

hey fella,enjoyed the vid, that song was great, who was it?really good.

[jeffstunes]

It was me :) Thank you. Glad you liked it :)

[nikcatello]

Gave it 5 would give it more if I could!!

[jeffstunes]

Wow. Thank you.

[4DRY4N]

Great song and the vibraphone sounds great man, totaly unexpected actualy, but it suits the song well 5* A.D. :))

[jeffstunes]

Thank you. Glad you liked it. I played this to a good guitarist friend a while back and at the beginning he said he wasn't too keen on the vibraphone. At the end of the song he looked at me and said "That was clever. It's the hook and I can't get it out of my head now". Lol. That pleased me :)

[peterbleakenstein123]

Great video and thanks for sending it to me. You really have a great voice and musical skills.

[jeffstunes]

Thank you peter :) I've got so many I've written over the last 5 years. I really need to buckle down and do some remixing :)

[peterbleakenstein123]

Well whatever your doing, continue it.

[Beatleologist]

Cool transitions, what program are you using?

[jeffstunes]

I've got several hundred transitions to play with. I did this one in a bit of software I bought a few years ago called "Pinnacle". I also bought the "Hollywood FX" transitions bolt on :) Glad you liked it :)

[Hisautumnrain]

::smiles:: Wonderful to see you back and posting Videos. I love this song and I like the new sound Jeff. Really I do! Honrtsnest and I will be gone off YouTube for a week come Sunday of this week until next Sunday. But I have your email and will be in touch! May love be with you Jeff and all you do. Please look at the CHANGE campaign. "Freesouljah" and "Superlunary" and "endOFapathy" are helping lead the unity of the community! Hence the icon change .. for now!

His autumnrain, becca @-->----

[lazymornings]

just saying hello!hiya!

[jeffstunes]

Hello :)

[jeffstunes]

Well I hope you're going for a holiday :)

Funny enough. I had this song in mind when you metioned the change campaign. Sort of like assumption is predictable but the truth can be surprising :).

Thank you Becca :)

[Hisautumnrain]

Why I am going from Sunday to Sunday of next week is in support for a Protest of a BLACK OUT of YouTube. I am not the starter of the campiagn. But.... Our "Classicalstrech" urged me. So, I agreed to it and both Horntsnest and I are taking a break from reading, posting and watching Video! So... I am not sure what the impact will be. But I can get ahold of you if you need me. Till Sunday I am here so.. POST AWAY! ::smiles::

His autumnrain, becca @-->-------

[Hisautumnrain]

P. S. I hope you do post the song you had in mind for CHANGE! I am sure it is the perfect thing to sing and say! :::skips off:: oh, and since you left YouTube screwed up the comments and ratings big time so don't be surprised if you can't make heads nor tails of the comments and... if you don't check them ASAP they disapear after more are placed! suggestion? When responding do exactly what you did for me and add my Channel name or familar name! My love goes with you.. becca @-->------

[jeffstunes]

Which reminds me. I need to check my webmail :)

I suppose what you are doing also falls into the "Change" campaign. You are doing something different by staying away, and hopefully that will lead to yielding positive results. Enjoy your extra time :)

[1966Nicole1966]

Great jeff and beautiful song

[jeffstunes]

Thank you Nicole. I know you sent me some vids. I'll be trawling through my list soon :)

[Rudebutsonicemousey]

[jeffstunes]

Lol. Thank you Ednamay. I was hoping the theme of this song would strike a note (pardon the pun) with a good number of people :)
